Dinky Line Walking Tour

Saturday, December 16, 2023 at 1:00 – 2:00 PM

Join Historic Takoma for a walking tour of the historic Dinky Line. We will trace the trolley route from the intersection of Carroll Avenue and Ethan Allen Avenue (Takoma Junction) down to the site of the Wildwood resort on Sligo Creek. Along the way, we’ll talk about how the short-lived line connected local and DC residents to the resort in the late 1890’s. 

Meet at the Sycamore Avenue parking lot of the Takoma Park Silver Spring Co-op. Please sign up in advance by writing to info@historictakoma.org with “Dinky” in the subject line. This will allow us to prepare for the walk and reach you if need be. Check our website (historictakoma.org) for information if the weather looks iffy. A donation of $5 is requested to support the work of Historic Takoma.
